Georgia has dreamed of being head chef at a Paris restaurant for years. She has a special talent, where she can identify various tastes and know exactly what a recipe needs. She speaks to Julia Child in her head, asking her for advice, and to give her guidance.
Her life is great, with the sexiest chef in Paris as her boyfriend, until she opens the restaurant refrigerator to find him with another restaurant employee in a compromising embrace. To get revenge on him, she sabotages a meal for a restaurant critic. She loses her talent, not able to taste anything. In disgrace, she leaves Paris after receiving a note from her estranged mother. Georgia heads to San Juan Island, and there she finds her mother, and a brooding man, Cole, who has a secret.
Interesting romance, with a woman struggling to find herself. Enjoyable, although formulaic.

Well written but not particularly interesting or engaging. The romance was totally missable and very little of the book would have been different had there been none it would have also made more sense with none.
